Discord integration
Live status board
A pinned embed in
#server-status in the support Discord has a pinned embed maintained by the bot. It updates every 60 seconds with the current health of every Rust Pulse component:
- 🟢 Website — rustpulse.app is reachable.
- 🟢 API — the backend is responding.
- 🟢 Database — Postgres is healthy.
- 🟢 Relay — the always-on Rust+ connection layer is healthy.
- 🟢 Bot — this Discord bot is online.
Per service, the embed shows latency in milliseconds and the number of currently active relay connections.
Incident posts
When a service flips state (operational ↔ degraded ↔ down), a separate incident message is posted in the channel — not just an edit to the pinned embed. That way the channel doubles as a historical log of every incident: when it started, when it ended, what the recovery path was.
What the colours mean
| Emoji | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 🟢 Operational | Healthy, normal latency. |
| 🟡 Degraded | Reachable but slow (>3s response). |
| 🔴 Down | Unreachable or returned an error. |
| ⚪ Unknown | Probe disabled or not yet run. |
If the status board says everything's green but you're seeing problems, please open a /ticket — the probes can miss user-specific issues (e.g. one paired server having trouble).
